As the wedding ceremony came to a close, the newlyweds, Vox and Alastor, made their way to the after-party, a lively celebration filled with laughter, music, and the clinking of glasses. The venue was decorated with twinkling lights and colorful balloons, setting the perfect atmosphere for a joyous occasion.

Guests mingled, enjoying delicious treats and drinks, while Niffty zoomed around in her mini monster truck, occasionally stopping to spread more confetti. The festivities kicked off with heartfelt speeches, each one a testament to the love and camaraderie shared among friends.

Charlie took the mic first, her voice ringing with warmth. "I'm so happy to celebrate this incredible day with all of you! Vox and Alastor, you two are truly meant for each other, and I wish you a lifetime filled with love and laughter." The crowd erupted in applause, and Niffty cheered loudly, her energy infectious.

Next up was Lucifer, who couldn't help but tease Vox. "You know, I've known this guy since day one, and let me tell you, he was never one to settle down. Alastor, you've done the impossible! I just hope you're prepared for Vox's crazy antics. But in all seriousness, you two complement each other perfectly. Cheers to the happy couple!" The crowd laughed and raised their glasses, toasting to the newlyweds.

Then it was Niffty's turn, and she hopped up to the microphone with a big grin. "I love you both so much! You make my heart so happy! And I promise to always share my toys!" The crowd chuckled, touched by her sincerity and childlike enthusiasm.

Angel took the stage next, his charm evident as he winked at the audience. "You know, Vox and Alastor are proof that love can truly be found in the most unexpected places. And let's be real, Alastor, you're lucky to have someone as amazing as Vox! Just don't let him sing in the car!" Laughter erupted as Vox playfully shoved Angel, who feigned hurt before joining in the laughter.

Finally, Rosie stepped up, a twinkle in her eye. "You guys are the best! I've seen your relationship grow from a spark to a blazing fire, and it's inspiring. Vox, you've found your other half, and Alastor, you've got someone who can keep up with your antics. Here's to many more adventures together!" She raised her glass, and everyone joined in, celebrating the love that filled the room.

As the speeches wrapped up, Vox and Alastor exchanged glances filled with love and gratitude, knowing that they were surrounded by friends who supported them every step of the way. The after-party continued with dancing, laughter, and plenty of confetti, marking the start of their new life together.

As the clinking of glasses subsided and laughter filled the air, the atmosphere at the after-party was nothing short of joyous. Friends and family mingled, reliving the highlights of the ceremony and the speeches that had been shared. Charlie sat at a table with Rosie, both of them beaming with happiness.

After a few more heartfelt speeches, Vox stood up, raising his glass to catch everyone's attention. "Excuse me! Can I have your attention, please?" His voice rang out clearly over the chatter. The room quieted down, curiosity lighting up the faces of the guests.

Rosie leaned closer to Charlie, a playful grin on her face. "I bet they're going to announce where they're going for their honeymoon! You know, some exotic location?"

Charlie raised an eyebrow, glancing back at Vox and Alastor. "Yeah, they look nervous, not happy," she said, a hint of concern in her tone.

Alastor fidgeted with the mic, his usual confidence wavering slightly as he and Vox exchanged a reassuring glance, nodding at each other. Vox took a deep breath, stepping closer to the mic. "So, we have a very special announcement to make," he said, his voice steadying as he looked out at the crowd.

Alastor shifted nervously beside him, glancing around the room as if bracing himself for the reactions. "What we're about to share is something very important to us," Vox continued, his eyes shining with excitement.

"Unbeknownst to Niffty..." Alastor chimed in, his voice trembling just a bit, "we've made the decision to adopt her."

The room fell silent for a moment as the words sunk in, and then the realization hit. Niffty, who had been playing with her newly acquired toys nearby, froze in place, wide-eyed and breathless. The initial shock quickly morphed into pure joy as she processed what they had just announced.

In a burst of energy, she bounced up and down, squealing with delight. "Wait, really?! Are you serious?!"

Before either Vox or Alastor could respond, Niffty launched herself into Alastor's arms, wrapping her arms around his neck tightly. "Yay! I'm so happy!" she exclaimed, her laughter echoing through the room.

The guests erupted into cheers and applause, their joy infectious as they celebrated this heartfelt decision. Vox grinned, glancing at Alastor, who looked both stunned and overjoyed as he cradled Niffty in his arms.

"Looks like we're officially a family now," Vox said, his smile widening as he joined Alastor in holding Niffty, who was practically glowing with happiness.

Rosie and Charlie exchanged glances, their hearts swelling with emotion at the beautiful moment unfolding before them. The love in the room was palpable, and everyone could feel the bond strengthening between the three of them, solidifying the foundation of their new family.

After a few heartwarming speeches and a lively round of laughter, the atmosphere shifted to one of celebration as the music began to play. Guests mingled and danced, the sweet notes of jazz filling the air. Vox and Alastor took to the floor, their movements fluid and joyful as they twirled Niffty between them.

After a while, Vox clapped his hands, gathering everyone's attention once again. "Alright, everyone! I have a special surprise for you all!" He grinned, glancing at Alastor, who raised an eyebrow in curiosity.

"Did I not tell you guys that Papermint is a DJ?" Vox announced, pointing toward the corner of the room.

The crowd turned to see Papermint—known affectionately as 'Minter'—setting up a sleek DJ deck, adorned with vibrant lights and colorful buttons. The room fell into a brief silence, all eyes on him, bewilderment written across their faces.

"Wait, what?" came a voice from the back, as the realization began to sink in.

"Oh, you've got to be kidding!" someone else exclaimed.

With a confident grin, Papermint adjusted his headphones and waved at the crowd. "Let's get this party started!"

As he hit the play button, the smooth sounds of techno filled the room, seamlessly blending with the lingering jazz vibe. The rhythm pulsed through the air, energizing everyone. Vox's favorite techno mixes came to life, sending waves of excitement rippling through the guests.

Without missing a beat, the dance floor came alive. People began to move, some stepping forward to show off their best dance moves while others simply swayed to the infectious beat. Niffty jumped up and down, her eyes shining with delight as she spun around, encouraging everyone to join in.

Alastor, initially taken aback by the sudden change in pace, soon found himself caught up in the rhythm. He grabbed Vox's hand, pulling him closer as they both began to dance, laughing and enjoying the moment. The energy was electric, and everyone felt a sense of freedom and joy as the night continued.

"Who knew Papermint had this in him?" Vox shouted over the music, beaming at Alastor.

"I guess he's full of surprises!" Alastor replied, his own enthusiasm growing as he lost himself in the music.

As the beats dropped and the lights pulsed in time, the after-party transformed into a vibrant celebration of love, laughter, and the new family they were building together. The night stretched on, filled with unforgettable moments, dancing, and the realization that this was just the beginning of their incredible journey as a family.

Niffty soon grew weary from the excitement of the dance floor, her small frame tired from all the jumping and twirling. With a sleepy yawn, she clambered into her mini monster truck, curling up with her petal basket, and quickly drifted off to sleep.

About ten minutes later, Vox and Alastor paused their dancing, glancing around the lively room. A flicker of concern crossed Vox's face as he noticed Niffty was nowhere in sight. "Where did she go?" he asked, scanning the crowd.

Alastor shrugged, a hint of worry creeping into his voice. "I'm not sure. She was just here a moment ago."

They turned their attention towards the tables, and there they spotted Rosie gently rocking the truck back and forth, a warm smile spread across her face as she watched Niffty sleep peacefully inside.

"I've got the troublemaker," Rosie said with a grin, glancing up at Vox and Alastor. "You guys focus on being newlyweds."

"Thank you, Rosie," Alastor replied, relief flooding through him. "You're a doll."

Rosie chuckled, returning her gaze to the sleeping girl as she continued to rock the truck. The couple shared a moment of gratitude before Alastor took Vox's hand, pulling him back to the dance floor.

"Come on, let's not waste any more time," Vox said, his eyes sparkling with joy. "It's our night."

As they returned to the rhythm of the music, Alastor felt a surge of happiness, knowing Niffty was in good hands. They danced together, wrapped up in their newfound joy as a married couple, savoring the magic of the evening and the love that surrounded them.
